A Closer Look at Windows 7's Taskbar
Posted 11/26/2008 at 04:24:20pm
These seem like pretty good changes IMO. I think they'll offer more multi-tasking options than before. You can now keep track on multiple things easier. I think once the public beta is available, I'll give it a spin!
But lets wait and let ghot tell us how shitty this will be, what a failure Windows 7 is going to be because of this and that Microsoft doesn't know what the hell it's doing and can't make an operating system to save it's lif.

Ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty Jackalope) Alpha 1 Now Available
Posted 11/25/2008 at 12:02:56am
So you hate Windows, and you hate Ubuntu (and most likely every other Linux OS because of command line stuff)... Maybe you should finally get a Mac and leave us all alone. Or why not just stop using computers altogether? Seems no one can do anything that makes you happy.

Employees Sue Over Boot-Time Paycuts

There's only so much you can do to speed up a computer's boot-time. They could add SSD drives to all PC', but then that increases cost, but even then, that'll only do so much...

AMD Offers Glimpse of Phenom II, Overclocks It Past 5GHz
Posted 11/24/2008 at 12:19:29pm
This is looking good for AMD... And the "Dragon" platform sounds intimidating. More so than the Spider platform (which I'm currently running). I'm really looking forward to the Phenom II. I wonder how it'll stand up to the i

S3 Graphics Adds DirectX 10.1 Support to New Chrome 500 Series

Would MPC ever consider reviewing this card (or one like it) against an ATI or nVidia card for HTPC tasks ONLY? I wonder how it would perform, and if maybe it'd work well in the next HTPC that I build, instead of going with a Radeon

Valve Releases 'Complete Pack' with Left 4 Dead and About a Billion Other Games for $100
Posted 11/17/2008 at 11:52:34am
When i've purchased Half-Life games off Steam, that include games I already own, I've been able to give my duplicates to someone else (I've been nice and just gave them away) however, I think if I get Left 4 Dead via this pack, I might re-sell the extra games as I have all of them (except for Peggle Extreme)

Backlight Manufacturers: LED Prices to Drop 40-50% in 2009

You do realize that PC stands for Personal Computer. Which covers a huge range of products. Your cell phone could be considered a personal computer, Blackberry, iPhone, Android phone, oh ya, and a Mac. A Mac is just one type of PC out there.
Grow the fluck up!

Asus Reveals the Eee Top, an iMac Style PC for the Masses.
Posted 11/08/2008 at 11:13:53pm
I've been going over in my head, what I'd like for my future living room (when I get a house) and one of the things that I'd really like, is a touch-screen PC to control my music, and provide internet access in a central location. This, I think, is what I've been looking for. Let's see how it looks once the price is released. Maybe it'll get more appealing, maybe it'll get less. Only time will tell!

That was really cool. I tuned in to CNN just to see the holigraphic interview! However, I only saw one. but it was still really neat. Very well done too. You could see an ever so slight lag, however it was awesome!
